🤖 CreateLex Local MCP

Direct MCP integration for VSCode and Cursor - No separate bridge app required!

CreateLex Local MCP brings the power of Model Context Protocol directly into your code editor, enabling seamless AI assistance with full context awareness of your codebase.

What this does

• Logs you into CreateLex and stores a secure token in VS Code Secret Storage
• Verifies active subscription via CreateLex
• Starts a local Python MCP server (mcp_server_protected.py) with your authentication token
• Auto-writes MCP server settings so editors that support MCP (VSCode, Cursor, Windsurf, Claude Desktop) can connect
• Bridges MCP stdio to your local CreateLex MCP server (localhost:9877) with authentication

Quick start

1. Open command palette and run: CreateLex: Login
   • Use browser login (recommended) or paste an access token
2. Run: CreateLex: Start Local MCP Server
   • This starts the Python MCP server locally and configures your editor
3. Use your AI editor with MCP. The extension adds an MCP server named createlex-unreal to your global settings.

No need to install CreateLex-Bridge app! This extension handles everything.

Settings

• createlex.baseUrl (default: https://createlex.com)
• createlex.mcpHost (default: localhost)
• createlex.mcpPort (default: 9877)
• createlex.autoConfigureMcp (default: true)
• createlex.debug (default: false)

How it works

• The extension starts a local Python MCP server (mcp_server_protected.py) with your authentication token.
• It runs a TCP bridge server on localhost:9877 that forwards requests to the Python server.
• The extension includes a small stdio bridge (bridge-stdio-client.js) that connects to this TCP server.
• Your editor starts this bridge as the MCP "command".
• JSON-RPC requests are forwarded directly to the local server, exactly like the CreateLex-Bridge app does.

Compatibility

• VSCode and Cursor (writes mcp.servers to global settings)
• Other MCP-enabled editors that read VS Code settings

Commands

• CreateLex: Login – authenticate with CreateLex
• CreateLex: Logout – clear stored token and stop MCP server
• CreateLex: Show Status – check login/subscription status
• CreateLex: Start Local MCP Server – start MCP server and configure editors
• CreateLex: Stop MCP Server – stop the running MCP server

Uninstall cleanup

If you want to remove the MCP settings, delete the mcp.servers entry from your user settings.
